- .RH MOD.RECIPES-SOURCE CURRIED-FRUIT D "30 Oct 86" 1987
- .RZ "CURRIED FRUIT" "Baked fruit with curry sauce and nuts"
- This dish can be served as a desert, alone, or on top of ice cream or pound
- cake (or both!). But, our favorite way of serving it is as a side dish at
- brunch on Christmas day. As long as I can remember, Mom has had this dish,
- along with an egg/cheese casserole, bacon, and muffins for Christmas brunch.
- It is especially easy since you make it a day ahead of time.

- I use standard American ``curry powder''. Any other that you
- want to use should be ok. Adjust the amount of curry powder to your taste,
- or use cinnamon if you really don't like the flavor of curry.
- .PP
- Use your imagination in choosing the fruits to go in it. Cherries and
- almonds are a must, but the rest is up to you. We use canned fruit, but
- fresh would be good too.
